In the military camp outside Yecheng in Jizhou, the strings on the school field trembled.

Whoosh ......

…… Whoosh ......

The crossbow strings stirred, and a row of black shadows in a straight line shot directly through the straw man located on the opposite side of the school field, and a group of Jizhou officials in official robes surrounded a Yuan Shao, who was wearing armor and carrying a sword, and wearing a gold armor and fur collar.

Yuan Shao fiddled with a crossbow arrow that was stuck in the straw man's body and did not penetrate it, and shook his head: "After a long time of improvement, the power is much stronger than the previous crossbow, but there are still deficiencies in the middle, if it is against Gongsun Zhi's cavalry, these crossbows may be able to withstand a few breaths, and it is of no great use." ”

Among the military attachés, Zhang He, who had slightly thin cheeks and short beards and thick eyebrows, took the crossbow arrows on the straw man, looked at them carefully, and nodded: "The lord is right, not only is there a problem with the crossbow body, but the crossbow arrows are not sharp enough. ”

Next to him, the judge frowned slightly, he was in charge of the military, and the improvement of the strong crossbow was also to prevent Gongsun Zhi's cavalry, and when Zhang He said this, he naturally felt a little uncomfortable, "The heavy cavalry of the white wolf is a minority after all, and my Jizhou strong crossbow is famous all over the world, when the boundary bridge was fought, a thousand strong crossbows wiped out all the white horse horses under Yan Gang's command, and Gongsun Zhi's cavalry could not be forged with iron?" It's just that I didn't expect General Zhang to be so arrogant and exaggerated. ”

"It's easy to say, you made suggestions in the rear, but do you know that our generals and others have personally braved arrows and stones to fight against him?"

"Haven't I seen Gongsun Zhi's wolf ride?"

“.…… Have you ever faced it! ”

"How can General Zhang mess around, I am a strategist, how can I face it directly!"

The two quarreled faintly, Yuan Shao looked at the crossbow in his hand, and chuckled lightly, the fourth world and the third prince came out of both civil and military, and his ambition was naturally the ninety-five throne, and he was also familiar with balance and the way of employing people. This Zhang He was originally a famous general in the Zhang family in Jizhou, originally a military Sima under Han Fu, after Han Fu fell, he naturally threw himself into Yuan Shao's door, brave and strategic, calm and calm, deeply loved, and took charge of the army alone, becoming the fourth person after Wen Chou, Yan Liang, and Han Meng.

In the entire Jizhou system, who is not on good terms with whom, in fact, Yuan Shao knows very well in his heart, but this is also what he needs, and it seems to outsiders that the internal fighting under his command is actually under his control.

"It is a fact that the strong crossbow should be improved, this is indisputable, how Gongsun stopped the cavalry, I have also learned, but it was a few years ago, hunters who often hunted in the mountains, only be careful not to be devoured by tigers and wolves, what you said is not unreasonable." Yuan Shao handed the crossbow arrow to the soldier, looked at the two over there and smiled, "....... But you can't be too cautious, otherwise the soldiers below will think that my general is so timid before he fights? Isn't that what you say? ”

"Yes...... Yes, what the lord said is very true, and he is too cautious. ”

"Huh...... Don't talk about it, a few days ago, the newspaper in Youzhou said that there were traces of the movement of soldiers and horses in Shanggu County, but unfortunately Gongsun Zhi built Juyong Pass earlier and cut off Youzhou, otherwise the information should be more detailed, but I feel that this person will definitely not move the troops and horses. ”

In the crowd, Guo Tu stepped forward and took small steps: "Lord, maybe the white wolf wants to go to the grassland of western Liaoxi to bypass Yuyang County and attack Liaodong." ”

"Liaodong? This is possible......" Yuan Shao frowned and groaned, and walked on the school field with his hands on his shoulders, "....... Although Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Du said that it was not his own family, he ...... No wonder...... I sent someone over to solicit him several times, but he was just circling around, and it seems that he had already communicated with Gongsun Zhi. ”

He is already the biggest prince in the world, and the richest, the words spoken at this time are naturally very important, Guo Tu and Feng Ji glanced at each other, and arched their hands: "Lord, this is a great opportunity, once Gongsun stops the soldiers and horses into Liaodong, we will intercept them from behind, and then unite Liaodong Xianbei and Wuhuan, combine 100,000 soldiers and horses, suppress him to death, and even trap him there. ”

"We'll agree to it." The surroundings such as Han Heng, the general Han Qiong, Lu Kuang, and Lu Xiang echoed.

Tian Feng, who had black and white hair, had a complicated gaze, and stepped forward and lowered his voice: "Lord, Gongsun Zhi is quick, cunning and cruel, how could he be defenseless with such a big move, Feng is worried that he has another strategy, and he should take precautions in advance." ”

"Haha! Yuan Hao was too safe, and he also held up the white wolf. Yuan Shao laughed, turned around and patted him on the shoulder, "Jizhou is no longer what it used to be, in the past, when I first sat in Jizhou, the people's hearts were undecided, and the soldiers and horses were not fine, so I was tricked by him and escaped. If you fight against this person again, you will definitely win the battle and kill him with a knife, and be ashamed of the snow! ”

Saying these words in a dignified manner, his eyes swept over the faces, most of the people were silent, and the heroic figure on the opposite side was also regarded as the four states under the horse, which was humble and polite on weekdays, but at this time, it was not angry and powerful, so that people did not dare to look directly.

When he was talking, a horse rushed in from outside the camp, and the soldiers originally wanted to stop the people who were dressed in clothes, so they let them go directly, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves, Yuan Shao looked at it, and came to ride a young man of about twenty, dressed in splendor, but he was not lazy, and he pulled the reins, and steadily stopped the war horse at a distance of more than ten steps, jumped off the horse and went straight to Yuan Shao.

"Father......" Before the person approached, his voice came over in a hurry.

"My son rode into the barracks on horseback, but he will be punished, and he will not be punished!" Yuan Shao's face was serious, but there was no blame in his eyes, the person who came was his second son Yuan Xi, and when the other party approached, before he could finish speaking, he reached out and swept his somewhat thin shoulders, "....... In front of the generals and strategists, how can they lose their appearance and panic like anything! ”

Yuan Xi didn't have time to answer, so he hurriedly took out a plain silk from his cuff and handed it over, "....... The child didn't mean it, this was an outing with Mi'er in the suburbs, and he saw the information sent by the fast horse, so he had to send it over in person. ”

On the other side, Yuan Shao glanced at him, unfolded the plain silk, his smile froze, his lips were tightly pursed, he trembled a little angrily, and said in a low voice: "Wuruan Pass was attacked ......" was dissipated in the brilliant skylight.

……

The mountains are majestic, and in the drizzle, the sound of boiling fighting stretches up to the city.

Blood flowed from the slippery stone bricks.

The corpse with the stomach broken fell down with a bang, falling to the head of the city, the black soldier carried the ladder, and the blood-stained long knife that continued to stretch up surging smashed through the weapons of the enemy general, and the serious and silent general was the first to climb over the battlement, standing opposite the crowd that rushed to him, waving his knife, and shouting: "Trap the camp, kill-"

Countless blood, mixed with dripping rain, fell on the pass that was about to topple.

The slaughter continued to push left and right, and the once lost and nameless general roared, leading the team to show his magnificent side again in front of the world, no one was fighting, and the tumbling body screamed and roared violently, falling over the moss-crawling high wall.

Xu Rong stood under the big flag, looked up at the killing on the city wall, and raised his hand when the raindrops fell on his face with a hint of coolness: "Second team, continue to follow, don't give the Jizhou soldiers a moment of respite." ”

"Yes!"

Soon the trumpet sounded.
